So much noise lately–first Mark Ruffalo lends his voice to the pro-abortionist cacophony, then Miley Cyrus lends that and a bunch of other body parts to our monkeys-on-display culture.
I have not and will not watch the Miley display. Poor girl. But I have read the Ruffalo letter and found it remarkably resonant to both situations.
Ruffalo describes his mother’s abortion as
“traumatizing…shameful, and sleazy, and demeaning.”
He is right. All abortion is traumatizing, shameful, sleazy, and demeaning.
There are plenty of places where prostitution is legal, but there is no place on the planet where it is anything but “traumatizing, shameful, sleazy, and demeaning.”
A point Ms. Cyrus has just proved rather infamously on a public stage in front of millions of people.
Abortion, prostitution, and this much publicized burlesque–so much in common, and none of it–none of it–raises the dignity of women.
You can make a great many immoral acts legal–SCOTUS has proved this over the course of the years, but no matter how legal a thing is, if it ever was “traumatizing, shameful, sleazy, and demeaning”…it still is.
